Fundraising: Scrip Gift Cards

The everyday purchases you, your family and your friends make can put money in your band account.

Your everyday purchases can add funds to your student’s account and the Band.

With the Scrip fundraising program, you pay for everyday purchases, things you’re already buying, like food, clothing, gas and other essentials, with gift cards.

We have reintroduced the Scrips Gift Card Program which allows families to earn money for band fees and/or band trip by SHOPPING. By purchasing gift cards to pay for items you use everyday, you earn money through percentage rebates – 1 to 16% of gift card value. 70% of the rebate will get credited into your child’s band account; 30% goes to the general band fund.

The program is updated with the majority of retailers offering electronic gift cards for immediate use (ScripNow!) so you no longer have to wait to for physical cards to be delivered. You order when you need it. For example: Need to by pine straw at Home Depot? Purchase your Home Depot eGift card before you leave, or while you are in the checkout line, with your smartphone. The added benefit of the electronic cards is NO SHIPPING FEE for delivery of physical cards. There is only a minimal transaction fee of 15 cents when you place your order online or smartphone, and pay through your PrestoPay account – whether your order one eGift card or twenty; from one retailer or 5 different retailers.

Participating Retailers/Available Gift Cards

The list of participating retailers and their percent discounts (i.e., your profit) can be found at www.shopwithscrip.com, look under “Shop” near the top of the web page. This list is updated on a regular basis as new retailers join or percentages change. Use this list to choose which gift cards you wish to order. You’ll notice most offer both eGift cards and
physical gift cards, however, there are some retailers that only offer physical gift cards. Due to the cost of shipping, we will only be placing an order for physical cards a couple of times a year – around the winter holiday and graduation.
